Yearbook Signing!

We are going to do our 3rd grade yearbook signing on Wednesday!  Just wanted to give you a heads up so everyone would have their yearbooks or signing books.

Important Lunch Information! And an announcement

Starting tomorrow,  the cafeteria will be only serving sack lunches.  Todaywill also be our last day to actually eat in the cafeteria.

Tomorrow, Tuesday, and Wednesday we will be eating in the classroom.  I won't have access to a microwave, so anything that is packed for lunch will need to be eaten as is.  The cafeteria will still be serving sack lunches tomorrow, Tuesday, and Wedneday.

And Thursday we won't be eating lunch because of our early dismissal time at 11:00.

Can't believe this is happening so fast!!!

Also ~ I told the kids today that I'm "retiring."  It's true ~ I'm going to stay home next year to be a mommy.  I couldnt' have asked for a sweeter class as my very last class.  This group of kids has captured and touched my heart in a way I can't put into words.  Thank you SO MUCH for sharing your children with me!

Due Friday

Just a reminder that Dragon Pride Projects and Reading Logs are due on FRIDAY!

Also, I am making the due date for all of my classroom library books Friday as well.  Can't believe things are wrapping up so quickly!

Yearbook and Hat Day Tomorrow!

Below is a letter from Lisa Peipert, our yearbook advisor.  I also wanted to remind you that tomorrow is Hat Day, and our Teacher of the Day has requested that everyone bring a stuffed animal to school that wants to.  :o)

Hello CES Parents,

Our 2010-2011 CES yearbook has officially arrived! If you ordered a copy of this year's full-color book, then you should receive it soon. I hope you will love looking back at all the fun times we've had at Carroll Elementary this year and we want you to know that we really appreciate your support of our school memory book.

If you have not had a chance to order a yearbook, we ordered extras and will be selling them for $25 each. Get your copy now, 'cause once they're gone... they're gone! We can accept cash or checks payable to CES.

Please let me know if you have any questions and I hope you all enjoy the last couple weeks of this school year!

Math Homework

You will probably be needed for the math homework tonight!  We are starting long division, and remembering to to each step each time is HARD WORK!  I remember thinking that long division was the hardest thing I'd ever had to do when I learned it! :o)

We are going to use their homework to keep working on these division steps tomorrow.  If frustration starts to happen ~ take a break!  I am planning on reteaching this tomorrow.  And the next day.  And the next day.  For however long it takes to master it!

Monday Announcements :o)

Last week was the last week for Math Club and Reading Club.  We have all worked so hard, and I am so proud of everyone's progress!

I will be off campus at a meeting tomorrow.  Just wanted to give you a heads up.

Also, Tuesday and Thursday this week are Mavericks Days!  Support our hometeam by wearing Mavericks jerseys and shirts on play off game days!
